Massy Opera holds a unique position in France’s cultural scene, being the only opera house located in the suburbs. Opened in 1993, it was born from a strong political will by the local municipality at the time to equip the Essonne region with a venue capable of hosting large-scale lyrical and symphonic productions.
Its architecture features a modern design, including a performance hall acoustically optimized to meet the technical demands of lyrical art.
You're invited to explore this artful space as part of behind-the-scenes tours of the Opera! Step behind the curtain and spend nearly an hour and a half discovering what mysteries lie behind the dance, theatre, or opera productions. You'll get access to the machinery, backstage dressing rooms, costume workshop, and rehearsal stage—all while a performance, specifically La Bohème by Giacomo Puccini, is being prepared on Saturday, April 11, 2026.
Discover more about this opera, including its staging, costumes, and sets! Additional tours may be offered in the future, but for now, this is the only available date. So, don’t wait too long to reserve your spot and enjoy this unique experience!
